Interestingly enough, this is easy to fix, but it means editing this bit of code that you copy/pasted from RentalSystems, and "breaking" their terms - but I cannot imagine that they would object - and it will not stop the code functioning correctly !
<!--it is part of the terms of use that you do not delete this code or edit it in any way.

If you increase that number highlighted in red to something like 600 then the scroll bars shoudl vanish. You may have to iterate a bit with the actual number.

WOW! Thanks for all the suggestions, I agree with much of the advice and have addressed a number of the issues. A great help!
The only issue I couldn't replicate was the 'things to do' problem, can anyone else replicate this?

My fault for not being clear.

I think in general I meant that the navigation wasn't entirely clear, you couldn't always get to where you want to be from any page, and I got the distinct impression sometimes that there was a particular route.

On the "things to go", specifically.

First time I found this through the "About Akbuk" tab, on each page. Then at the bottom of the three paragraphs there are five options: "Things to do", "Getting around"... etc.

Clicking "Things to do", takes you to a sub paragraph (I now notice on the same page), and then you'd need to click "Find out more" to get to what I'd call the real things to do page.

When I went back, I found a link "Things to do" on the home page. But those two (very different) routes seemed to be the only way in. I got the impression that if I didn't go to the right pages I might not see everything.

Hope that's clearer.

Regards

Lee
